Steredenn is a Horizontal Scrolling Shooter developed by Pixelnest Studio, and published by Plug In Digital on Oct 1, 2015. It can be found on Steam, Xbox One, Play Station 4, Play Station 3, and Nintendo Switch.Your Mothership has just been attacked by Space Pirates - in the middle of the tutorial, no less! Take your Space Fighter and go teach those jerks a lesson.Each level in Steredenn is comprised of a sequence of randomized attack waves, requiring you to think fast and adapt quickly as the game throws different challenges at you; one minute you might be negotiating a laser corridor, the next, you might be being bombarded by missile frigates. To add to the chaos, stages may also have random modifiers, such as meteor showers or an off-screen laser cannon trying to zap you.If you make it through all of that, you'll then have to hope your ship is in good enough shape to face the boss. Defeating the boss restores your armor and leaves you fresh and ready to face the next stage, and additionally, you get to select a perk for your ship. The first time you defeat a boss unlocks it in the "Arena" mode, which allows you to re-fight that boss at your leisure, using any loadout of weapons you have already found in a normal run.At the beginning of the game, your ship is equipped with just a Boring, but Practical rapid-fire blaster weapon, but you'll quickly get the opportunity to replace it. Weapons come in a wide variety of categories: bullet weapons, energy beams, autonomous drones, and even some melee weapons. Choosing a good weapon combination forms part of the game strategy; the ship can only hold two weapons at a time, which forces the player to make quick decisions as to which weapon to discard or keep when a replacement becomes available. Every weapon has merits and drawbacks, and each kind of enemy reacts differently to each one (indicated by the color they flash when you hit them).There is also a "Daily Run" mode which allows you to compete for the highest score of the day with other players of the game, with the caveat that you only get one attempt at any given Daily Run.In 2018, Pixelnest Studio released an enhanced version called Binary Stars, which added a huge amount of new content, including new playable ships with special abilities, new weapons, new and improved bosses, and more. | |

Score Multiplier | |
| Steredenn (Video Game) / int_12ac916e | comment |
Score Multiplier: There's an ever-present multiplier which increases every time you survive a wave without damage, and also if you complete the wave objective (usually "destroy all enemies"). There's also a "+20% score" multiplier upgrade which is guaranteed to appear at the end of every level, which means that you can opt to go entirely for score-increasing upgrades if you desire. | |

Destructible Projectiles | |
| Steredenn (Video Game) / int_1695e61d | comment |
Destructible Projectiles: All projectiles are technically destructible, but you need a weapon that's capable of cancelling them. A more straight example is the propelled missiles fired by some enemies, which can be shot down (although their tiny cross-section makes this difficult). | |

Spectacular Spinning: When you choose a perk pickup after defeating a boss, it forms into a ring which spins faster and faster around your ship until it's absorbed in a flash of energy. There's no clear reason for this. It just looks really cool. | |

Death from Above | |
| Steredenn (Video Game) / int_1c398324 | comment |
Death from Above: The "Laser rain" level event means that lasers are being fired upon you from some offscreen source; presumably a Pirate ship. The player's mothership was destroyed by a similar laser weapon at the start of the game. Similarly, the "Meteor shower" event rains flaming rocks upon the level. | |

Power at a Price | |
| Steredenn (Video Game) / int_1ebbdddb | comment |
Power at a Price: If you defeat one of the special bosses, you're presented with a choice of several epic-level powers, such as being granted a massive damage bonus or the game's most powerful weapon; however, every choice comes with an equally weighty trade-off, such as halving your armor, or making all enemies explode into bullets on death. Fortunately, the game does allow you to reject all the choices if you're not ready to make such a sacrifice. | |

Wave-Motion Gun | |
| Steredenn (Video Game) / int_263bb4ec | comment |
Wave-Motion Gun: This is the premiere armament of the Destroyer bosses, a gigantic red beam that lasts for several seconds. In terms of damage per shot, it's the most powerful weapon in the whole game. In the final levels, some of the larger enemies have this weapon too! The Red Baron (when fought as a boss) also has this. Unusually, the player themself can acquire a Wave Motion Gun too! There are a couple of weapons that fit the bill: The Ultralaser is the most typical example; it takes a second to charge up, and slows down your ship while active, but it is unblockable, and will tear through shields and annihilate anything caught within the huge beam. The Ultrabeam is similar, but builds up power the longer you hold it for. It is immensely powerful, but slows your ship to a crawl at full charge, making it very difficult to dodge incoming projectiles. The Red Baron retains its Wave Motion Gun even after it becomes a playable ship. | |

Laser Hallway | |
| Steredenn (Video Game) / int_2813c530 | comment |
Laser Hallway: You'll often encounter arrays of laser emitters and conduits, which turn the screen into a confusing laser deathtrap. Sometimes you'll need to think carefully about which conduit to destroy to open up a safe path. Destroying the emitter is the best option, as this will drop the entire grid. | |

Tactical Rock–Paper–Scissors | |
| Steredenn (Video Game) / int_28c502f6 | comment |
Tactical Rock–Paper–Scissors: Every kind of enemy reacts differently to different weapons. The tiny fighters are easily cut down by bullet weapons, while asteroids are more easily destroyed by energy weapons. You can tell if an enemy is weak or resistant to your weapon by looking at the color they flash when the weapon hits. This is one reason why weapon selection is important; often, you'll be better off switching to another weapon if your current one isn't doing the job. | |

More Dakka | |
| Steredenn (Video Game) / int_2b706ca | comment |
More Dakka: The Cruiser boss uses this as its defensive strategy; it hurls enough firepower at you that you'll spend more time trying to survive the onslaught than attacking it. The Battleship doesn't even bother with defensive tactics; it sits there and just pelts you with barrage after barrage of fire, hoping to kill you before you can wear down its armor (and it's not exactly lacking in that department, either). The bullet weapons escalate in fire rate and dispersion. The starting Blaster is fairly direct, with a narrow spread; the Hyperblaster loses accuracy as you fire; and the Supergun fires a huge Spread Shot that covers most of the screen. | |

Boring, but Practical | |
| Steredenn (Video Game) / int_39b8d3d6 | comment |
Boring, but Practical: The default Blaster weapon is a straightforward rapid-fire bullet weapon with a slight spread, and absolutely fine for most situations. In particular, the Blaster always seems to be effective against bosses, which otherwise tend to have an annoying resistance to special weapons. The game itself notes that it is possible to beat it using nothing but the Blaster (and there's an achievement for doing so). The Laser is also fairly unexciting - just a straight continuous beam - but it's a solid, dependable weapon in many situations. Few enemies are resistant to it, it cuts through lines of fighters easily, and unless the beam is interrupted, you can usually just keep it trained on an enemy to deal continuous damage until they're dead. It also deals with asteroids effectively. Homing missiles are simple and reliable; you can't miss with them, so you can just find a safe spot and keep pumping them out until your target is destroyed. | |

Victory Fakeout: Defeating the Mothership does not complete the game; as soon as the Mothership is destroyed, a mystery boss immediately shows up and you go straight into another boss battle. Fortunately, this boss is much easier than the Mothership. When you destroy the Alien Threat the first time, it splits into two halves... which then continue attacking you. | |

Shield-Bearing Mook | |
| Steredenn (Video Game) / int_406315e | comment |
Shield-Bearing Mook: A later enemy comes with a built-in shield generator that lets it project a forcefield in front of itself, rendering it indestructible unless you have a weapon or upgrade that lets you break enemy shields. Even worse, if you fire on it, your shots get reflected back at you, so even attacking through it with a piercing weapon is a risky move. | |

Flunky Boss: The Carrier is the only boss that makes no attempt to directly attack you; instead, it prefers to launch fighters to do the fighting for it. While you're dealing with those, it'll also deploy Space Mines, fill the screen with projectiles to obstruct you, blast out shockwaves to stop you getting close, and drop the occasional laser ship too. If you actually can deal with all those things, the Carrier itself goes down fairly easily. | |

Doomed Hometown | |
| Steredenn (Video Game) / int_4108bb3e | comment |
Doomed Hometown: Well, more like Doomed Mothership: the destruction of the US Goliath, where the player character is stationed, is what sets the game in motion. If you manage to loop the game, you'll find that the destruction has apparently gone much further than your mothership; the entire planet is now devastated. | |

Dual Wielding | |
| Steredenn (Video Game) / int_50d71a78 | comment |
The Boomerang is one of the more difficult weapons to use in combat; it's a thrown weapon that comes back, and if you fail to catch it you have to wait a few moments for your ship to generate a new one to throw. Catching it is easier said than done when you're dodging a barrage of enemy fire at the same time. But the killer advantage of the Boomerang is the fact that you can use it simultaneously with your other weapon (because you can throw the Boomerang, switch to your other weapon, blast away, then catch the Boomerang), effectively allowing your ship to Dual Wield. And the Boomerang does great damage in its own right. | |

Asteroid Thicket: The game is full of floating rocks, many of which are booby-trapped or have turrets and guns mounted on them. Energy weapons are particularly effective at dealing with them. There is a level event which greatly increases the density of asteroids, making this trope even more apparent. The "Set The Universe On Fire" artefact massively increases the number of rocks and adds flaming meteors to the mix too. | |

Charged Attack | |
| Steredenn (Video Game) / int_589e54d3 | comment |
Charged Attack: The appropriately-named Charger is a charge weapon in the classic shoot 'em up style, complete with a Sucking-In Lines effect. It fires a flaming bolt that explodes on contact into smaller bolts, the number depending on how much the weapon was charged up. The Shockwave weapon also requires you to charge up and release, producing a circular burst of energy that can vaporize projectiles and small fighters, and damage larger enemies. The Mines weapon appears to use some kind of catapulting launcher; the longer you charge for, the further the launched mine will go. | |

Attack Reflector | |
| Steredenn (Video Game) / int_60f37373 | comment |
Attack Reflector: The Reflector is a shield-type pickup which gives your ship a reflective barrier that can be oriented in any direction. Enemy projectiles that hit it can be reflected away, or even back at the enemies that fired them. The barrier can only be maintained for a short time, however, and then has to recharge. Unfortunately, the bad guys have their own version of this: one of the later enemies is a ship that can put up a forcefield in front of itself, which reflects your shots back at you in the form of enemy projectiles. The more power you hit it with, the bigger the reflected projectile. | |

Each type of weapon pickup is a different color, giving you some indication as to what it is before you get near enough to identify it.

Macross Missile Massacre | |
| Steredenn (Video Game) / int_8b93a168 | comment |
Macross Missile Massacre: The Fortress has one for its special ability. The Bomber MK-1 boss has one of these for its third attack; a projectile that splits into dozens of difficult-to-dodge bolts. | |

Self-Imposed Challenge | |
| Steredenn (Video Game) / int_8d4fcaa5 | comment |
If the player has chosen their weapons poorly (or, perhaps, intentionally), it's possible for them to be in a situation where their only useful weapons are impractically destructive; for example, they might find themselves having to use the Death Ray to take out a tiny fighter, because that's all they have. | |

Invincible Minor Minion | |
| Steredenn (Video Game) / int_92bd6627 | comment |
Invincible Minor Minion: One common enemy is a distinctive fighter that has no weapons and is no direct threat, but exists solely to project a forcefield around itself, which renders it indestructible and will block pretty much anything you fire at it. These enemies tend to position themselves in such a way as to provide cover for something more nasty. There's a few ways to deal with them; the surest way is to destroy them before they can get the shield up. Failing that, you either need to have a weapon capable of destroying enemy shields, or one with a piercing quality, such as the Impaler. (The shielded ship will survive, but anything behind it will be skewered). | |

Death or Glory Attack | |
| Steredenn (Video Game) / int_9446f847 | comment |
Death or Glory Attack: The Death Ray is one of the most powerful weapons in the game - nothing can block it, and it can one-hit kill many enemies instantly (except bosses, but it still deals them a massive amount of damage). The drawback? You have to wait a few seconds for it to recharge before you can fire again, and your ship is slowed to a crawl while it's recharging. | |

Difficult, but Awesome | |
| Steredenn (Video Game) / int_9b9397bb | comment |
Difficult, but Awesome: The Boomerang is one of the more difficult weapons to use in combat; it's a thrown weapon that comes back, and if you fail to catch it you have to wait a few moments for your ship to generate a new one to throw. Catching it is easier said than done when you're dodging a barrage of enemy fire at the same time. But the killer advantage of the Boomerang is the fact that you can use it simultaneously with your other weapon (because you can throw the Boomerang, switch to your other weapon, blast away, then catch the Boomerang), effectively allowing your ship to Dual Wield. And the Boomerang does great damage in its own right. The Reflector (an orientable barrier that reflects enemy fire) can be tough to use in battle, but if you master it, you can give enemies a nasty dose of their own medicine. The Lag Cannon does a great deal of damage, but its operation is unusual; you have to wait a few moments after you hit something for the damage to actually be dealt. In the original Steredenn, the tip of the Lightsaber could cancel enemy projectiles. If you can strike an enemy accurately with the tip, you can both damage it and prevent it from firing on you at the same time, but it takes some precision, and leaves you vulnerable to an almost unavoidable attack if you get it wrong. | |

Competitive Balance | |
| Steredenn (Video Game) / int_9f4a47f2 | comment |
Competitive Balance: Binary Stars allows the player access to 5 playable ships. Each comes with different stats and playstyles Jackof All Stats: The Tempest is balanced in every way. Its one feature is a dedicated slot for melee weapons on top of its two guns. Stone Wall: The Fortress has reduced speed and firepower in exchange for taking reduced damage. The power of its Macross Missile Massacre ability edges it into Mighty Glacier territory. Fragile Speedster: The Fury has less HP but more speed and deals extra damage, which tips it into Glass Cannon status. It also has a teleport to maintain good positioning and deal damage when reappearing. Mechanically Unusual Fighter: The Specialist is a The Turret Master that can only use Bots as weapons. It has an aura around itself that can render Bots close to it invincible. It also has Booster Bots that greatly increase their effectiveness at the cost of longevity. Masterof All: The Red Baron has a powerful Spread Shot, Wave-Motion Gun, and Grenade Launcher. Its ability lets it move at incredible speed. However, it has even less HP than the Fury, so it also qualifies as a Glass Cannon. | |

Shout-Out: The game has quite a few shout-outs to Gloryhammer (one of the devs seems to be a fan): The Gloryhammer weapon itself, obviously. One of the special upgrades is "Set The Universe On Fire", which causes a permanent meteor shower and massively increases the number of floating rocks. One of the Boss Subtitles is "Hail to Hoots!", a reference to the Gloryhammer song "The Hollywood Hootsman". The TARDIS sometimes appears in the background. Other Boss Subtitle shoutouts include: "Infinitely improbable" "Warning! A Huge Battleship is approaching Fast!" Two to David Bowie, both from "Space Oddity": "Commencing countdown, engines on", and "Floating in a most peculiar way". Bowie died a few months after the game's release. | |

Turns Red | |

Turns Red: The Cruiser boss suddenly changes its behaviour after you deal enough damage to it, and starts firing out weaving projectiles in all directions. | |

Sucking-In Lines | |
| Steredenn (Video Game) / int_e435d187 | comment |
Sucking-In Lines: The Destroyer bosses do this before firing their Wave Motion Guns. Unlike the drawn-out, theatrical build-up of many shooters, the charge-up period of these massive weapons is startlingly brief, and can easily catch an unwary player by surprise. The smaller laser ships also do this before firing their lasers. And your own ship does this while it's charging the Charger or the Death Ray. | |

Weak Turret Gun: The Bot weapons that your ship can place are easily destroyed by enemy fire. You can get an upgrade which makes them more durable. | |

Emergency Weapon | |
| Steredenn (Video Game) / int_ef42ca88 | comment |
Emergency Weapon: The Tempest, Fortress, and Fury all have special abilities that can deal damage if main weapons aren't available for any reason: The Tempest starts with the Razorblade, a short melee weapon that does good damage at very close range. The Fortress can unleash a Macross Missile Massacre, good for dealing with fighter swarms. The Fury's special ability is teleportation, which is not directly offensive; however, the burst of energy produced by a teleportation can be used offensively to damage and destroy enemies at the destination. | |

Stone Wall: The Fortress has reduced speed and firepower in exchange for taking reduced damage. The power of its Macross Missile Massacre ability edges it into Mighty Glacier territory. | |

Boss Warning Siren: In classic shoot 'em up fashion, everything slows down, the screen narrows, a siren blares, and Boss Subtitles introduce the approaching boss. | |

Regenerating Shield, Static Health: You don't start off with a shield, but you can obtain one as a perk. Although it can only withstand a single hit, it recharges when you're not firing. | |

Laser Blade | |
| Steredenn (Video Game) / int_f8cddfb2 | comment |
Laser Blade: The Lightsaber weapon. In the original Steredenn, this was a short-range beam that could be used to damage something in close quarters, but also had the useful quality of being able to cancel projectiles, making it a nice Utility Weapon. In Binary Stars, it was changed to function more like a literal Star Wars lightsaber, becoming swingable and now able to deflect projectiles instead. | |

Death Ray: One of the weapons. It's a pink bolt that hits instantly and can kill most enemies in one hit, but leaves your ship dangerously slow while it's recharging. | |
